He argues that the fatal conflict between Britain and Germany was far from inevitable. It was Britain's declaration of war that needlessly turned a continental conflict into a world war, and it was Britain's economic mismanagement and military inferiority that necessitated American involvement, forever altering the global balance of power. Ferguson vividly brings back to life one of the seminal catastrophes of the century, not through a dry citation of chronological chapter and verse, but through a series of chapters that answer the key questions: Why did the war start? Why did it continue? And why did it stop? How did the Germans manage to kill more soldiers than they lost but still end up defeated in November 1918? Above all, why did men fight?",1998,"https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx6pea0vyq0f15p9gk9n3vxp.jpg?v=760e68ccef","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Fworks-3d\u002F01\u002F01kx6pe9ypdygmdv4dcp3khq4s.png?v=80c07aedf9","LRRfRe%g?^a0IdogtQWBcYRPMdx]",0,586,666,"complete",false,true,[20],{"id":21,"slug":22,"name":23,"role":24,"bio":25},"01kjv3xp3adpwhvwyv7nyf8rkc","niall-ferguson-hof0","Niall Ferguson","author","Niall Campbell Ferguson is a British historian from Scotland.

A conflict of unprecedented ferocity, it abruptly ended the relative peace and prosperity of the Victorian era, unleashing such demons of the twentieth century as mechanized warfare and mass death. It also helped to usher in the ideas that have shaped our times--modernism in the arts, new approaches to psychology and medicine, radical thoughts about economics and society--and in so doing shattered the faith in rationalism and liberalism that had prevailed in Europe since the Enlightenment. With The First World War, John Keegan, one of our most eminent military historians, fulfills a lifelong ambition to write the definitive account of the Great War for our generation. Probing the mystery of how a civilization at the height of its achievement could have propelled itself into such a ruinous conflict, Keegan takes us behind the scenes of the negotiations among Europe's crowned heads (all of them related to one another by blood) and ministers, and their doomed efforts to defuse the crisis. He reveals how, by an astonishing failure of diplomacy and communication, a bilateral dispute grew to engulf an entire continent. But the heart of Keegan's superb narrative is, of course, his analysis of the military conflict. With unequalled authority and insight, he recreates the nightmarish engagements whose names have become legend--Verdun, the Somme and Gallipoli among them--and sheds new light on the strategies and tactics employed, particularly the contributions of geography and technology. No less central to Keegan's account is the human aspect. He acquaints us with the thoughts of the intriguing personalities who oversaw the tragically unnecessary catastrophe--from heads of state like Russia's hapless tsar, Nicholas II, to renowned warmakers such as Haig, Hindenburg and Joffre. But Keegan reserves his most affecting personal sympathy for those whose individual efforts history has not recorded--\"the anonymous millions, indistinguishably drab, undifferentially deprived of any scrap of the glories that by tradition made the life of the man-at-arms tolerable.\" By the end of the war, three great empires--the Austro-Hungarian, the Russian and the Ottoman--had collapsed. But as Keegan shows, the devastation ex-tended over the entirety of Europe, and still profoundly informs the politics and culture of the continent today. His brilliant, panoramic account of this vast and terrible conflict is destined to take its place among the classics of world history.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Fworks\u002F01\u002F01kx6pa0fy2z5h4jewrhsmzd58.jpg?v=8fe3a6cc60","LxJa+TRjWCj@_Noef5fQRka}j[az",475,[211],{"id":212,"slug":213,"name":214},"01kjz5gcph7kb7g8ry3acfae4f","john-keegan-llsa","John Keegan",[216,220,221,222],{"id":217,"name":218,"slug":219,"is_fiction":18},54,"World War II","world-war-ii",{"id":32,"name":33,"slug":34,"is_fiction":17},{"id":36,"name":37,"slug":38,"is_fiction":17},{"id":28,"name":29,"slug":30,"is_fiction":18},[],{"pace":152,"complexity":7,"audience":155,"mood":225,"themes":227,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[226,158,157],"informative",[],{"id":229,"slug":230,"title":231,"description":232,"primary_cover_url":233,"cover_blurhash":234,"first_publish_year":235,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":13,"page_count":236,"authors":237,"genres":242,"series":247,"enrichment":248},"01kx6nz5zjbqaw27kr2ev3qt9d","the-war-that-ended-peace-b20h","The War That Ended Peace","From the bestselling and award-winning author of Paris 1919 comes a masterpiece of narrative nonfiction, a fascinating portrait of Europe from 1900 up to the outbreak of World War I. The century since the end of the Napoleonic wars had been the most peaceful era Europe had known since the fall of the Roman Empire. In the first years of the twentieth century, Europe believed it was marching to a golden, happy, and prosperous future. But instead, complex personalities and rivalries, colonialism and ethnic nationalisms, and shifting alliances helped to bring about the failure of the long peace and the outbreak of a war that transformed Europe and the world. The War That Ended Peace brings vividly to life the military leaders, politicians, diplomats, bankers, and the extended, interrelated family of crowned heads across Europe who failed to stop the descent into war: in Germany, the mercurial Kaiser Wilhelm II and the chief of the German general staff, Von Moltke the Younger; in Austria-Hungary, Emperor Franz Joseph, a man who tried, through sheer hard work, to stave off the coming chaos in his empire; in Russia, Tsar Nicholas II and his wife; in Britain, King Edward VII, Prime Minister Herbert Asquith, and British admiral Jacky Fisher, the fierce advocate of naval reform who entered into the arms race with Germany that pushed the continent toward confrontation on land and sea. There are the would-be peacemakers as well, among them prophets of the horrors of future wars whose warnings went unheeded: Alfred Nobel, who donated his fortune to the cause of international understanding, and Bertha von Suttner, a writer and activist who was the first woman awarded Nobel's new Peace Prize. Here too we meet the urbane and cosmopolitan Count Harry Kessler, who noticed many of the early signs that something was stirring in Europe; the young Winston Churchill, then First Lord of the Admiralty and a rising figure in British politics; Madame Caillaux, who shot a man who might have been a force for peace; and more. With indelible portraits, MacMillan shows how the fateful decisions of a few powerful people changed the course of history. MacMillan's central argument is that the outbreak of the First World War was not a foregone conclusion, but the outcome of specific choices and failures by Europe's leaders. - Publisher.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx6nz609ka92ydt7r6ckbpr8.jpg?v=d1a50c8930","LFIhNr~qt7%2nlNH~WIVx]SN^kE1",2013,762,[238],{"id":239,"slug":240,"name":241},"01kx6nz5zwf7gzakjh7byz8vvg","margaret-olwen-macmillan-kiyd","Margaret Olwen Macmillan",[243,244,245,246],{"id":184,"name":185,"slug":186,"is_fiction":18},{"id":28,"name":29,"slug":30,"is_fiction":18},{"id":32,"name":33,"slug":34,"is_fiction":17},{"id":36,"name":37,"slug":38,"is_fiction":17},[],{"pace":152,"complexity":7,"audience":155,"mood":249,"themes":250,"setting_period":7,"summary":251,"content_warnings":7},[226,157],[],"A narrative history of Europe from 1900 to the outbreak of World War I, tracing how the continent's longest era of peace since the Roman Empire collapsed into catastrophe.

It proposed a wartime alliance: if the United States entered the war against Germany, Mexico should join Germany and Japan against America, with Germany's help in reclaiming Texas, New Mexico, and Arizona.\n\nBarbara Tuchman traces how Britain's codebreakers deciphered the message, and the delicate problem of how to hand it to Washington without revealing that Germany's codes had been broken. She sets the telegram against the wider background of the German high command's decision to resume unrestricted submarine warfare, Woodrow Wilson's strained neutrality, and the unstable state of U.S.-Mexico relations during the Mexican Revolution.\n\nWhen the telegram's contents reached the American press in early 1917, public opinion shifted decisively, and Congress moved toward a declaration of war against Germany within weeks. Tuchman's account follows the intelligence operation from interception to publication and its role in bringing the United States into the First World War.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx6pbejgpwp8ce20fs9je553.jpg?v=b672611afb","LZ9viaQ=j=bY*DkAV[kAM#pEjIj[",1979,243,[313],{"id":314,"slug":315,"name":316},"01kjt6zfmb7a5hd7c3jjzgqvb3","barbara-tuchman-6fib","Barbara Tuchman",[318,319,320,321],{"id":184,"name":185,"slug":186,"is_fiction":18},{"id":28,"name":29,"slug":30,"is_fiction":18},{"id":32,"name":33,"slug":34,"is_fiction":17},{"id":36,"name":37,"slug":38,"is_fiction":17},[],{"pace":152,"complexity":7,"audience":155,"mood":324,"themes":327,"setting_period":7,"summary":328,"content_warnings":7},[226,325,326],"tense","intellectual",[],"A history of the intercepted 1917 telegram in which Germany proposed a military alliance with Mexico against the United States — and how its exposure helped draw America into World War I.",{"id":330,"slug":331,"title":332,"description":333,"primary_cover_url":334,"cover_blurhash":335,"first_publish_year":336,"community_rating_avg":337,"community_rating_count":338,"page_count":339,"authors":340,"genres":345,"series":348,"enrichment":349},"01kx6nra3b2ja4y4ybvqtvjqvg","six-days-of-war-tw25","Six Days of War","In June 1967, a series of escalations between Israel and its Arab neighbors culminated in one of the fastest and most decisive military campaigns in modern history — the Six-Day War.

The time of the novel is the closing months of the most senselessly savage of modern conflicts. In France, millions of men engaged in brutal trench warfare are all \"ghosts in the making.\" In England, psychologist William Rivers, with severe pangs of conscience, treats the mental casualties of the war to make them whole enough to fight again. One of these, Billy Prior, risen to the officer class from the working class, both courageous and sardonic, decides to return to France with his fellow officer, poet Wilfred Owen, to fight a war he no longer believes in. Meanwhile, Rivers, enfevered by influenza returns in memory to his experience studying a South Pacific tribe whose ethos amounted to a culture of death. Across the gulf between his society and theirs, Rivers begins to form connections that cast new light on his--and our--understanding of war. Combining poetic intensity with gritty realism, blending biting humor with tragic drama, moving toward a denouement as inevitable as it is devastating, *The Ghost Road* both encapsulates history and transcends it. It is a modern masterpiece.

While this correspondence inspired Testament of Youth, Brittain's classic memoir of her wartime experiences, most of the letters are published here for the first time. Taken together, the letters present a remarkable and profoundly moving portrait of five idealistic youths caught up in the cataclysm of war. Spanning the duration of the war, the letters vividly convey the uncertainty, confusion, and almost unbearable suspense of the tumultuous war years. They offer both male and female perspectives and reveal important historical insights by allowing the reader to witness and understand the Great War from a variety of viewpoints: that of the soldier in the trenches, of the volunteer nurse in military hospitals, and even of the civilians on the home front.

As the true horrors of the Third Reich began to be exposed immediately after World War II, the Nazi war criminals who committed genocide went on the run. A few were swiftly caught, including the notorious SS leader, Heinrich Himmler. Others, however, evaded capture through a sophisticated Nazi organization designed to hide them. Among those war criminals were Josef Mengele, the \"Angel of Death\" who performed hideous medical experiments at Auschwitz; Martin Bormann, Hitler's brutal personal secretary; Klaus Barbie, the cruel \"Butcher of Lyon\"; and perhaps the most awful Nazi of all: Adolf Eichmann. Killing the SS is the epic saga of the espionage and daring waged by self-styled \"Nazi hunters.\" This determined and disparate group included a French husband and wife team, an American lawyer who served in the army on D-Day, a German prosecutor who had signed an oath to the Nazi Party, Israeli Mossad agents, and a death camp survivor. Over decades, these men and women scoured the world, tracking down the SS fugitives and bringing them to justice, which often meant death. Written in the fast-paced style of the Killing series, Killing the SS will educate and stun the reader. The final chapter is truly shocking. - Publisher.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Fworks\u002F01\u002F01kx6p3syda9a0h8t0kkhmmvwd.jpg?v=8f329cfa99","LFExFexZ9as:=ZoLI;of~WoLS~oz",2018,307,[781,785],{"id":782,"slug":783,"name":784},"01kp2h4qfvxnkzspzxcry2fe5e","bill-oreilly-szue","Bill O'Reilly",{"id":786,"slug":787,"name":788},"01kjthgcjf6cpetvr4tb4t60bh","martin-dugard-8gwx","Martin Dugard",[790,791,792],{"id":36,"name":37,"slug":38,"is_fiction":17},{"id":217,"name":218,"slug":219,"is_fiction":18},{"id":32,"name":33,"slug":34,"is_fiction":17},[],{"pace":350,"complexity":7,"audience":155,"mood":795,"themes":796,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[197,325],[],{"id":798,"slug":799,"title":800,"description":7,"primary_cover_url":801,"cover_blurhash":802,"first_publish_year":360,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":13,"page_count":803,"authors":804,"genres":824,"series":829,"enrichment":834},"01kqn0e9dq9zvrsk9f2v0rv5ha","a-fluid-frontier-d7uj","A Fluid Frontier","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kqn0e9g2f0n0chpknj93cyaj.jpg","LoLN}R%Mayj]~qxaj[ayD%WBayay",360,[805,809,813,817,820],{"id":806,"slug":807,"name":808},"01kqn0e9fw7dex6j8tjby7devd","karolyn-smardz-frost-igzk","Karolyn Smardz Frost",{"id":810,"slug":811,"name":812},"01kqn0e9fxtysw8cgrm5pc5hma","veta-smith-tucker-9mex","Veta Smith Tucker",{"id":814,"slug":815,"name":816},"01kp9twtmj1vfwf2k5mm38vzv3","david-w-blight-9m68","David W.
